Front brake calipers, FZS600. - eightcans - 18-06-15

Newbie with a front brake caliper question that has probably been asked more than once... :rolleyes Are the original and facelift Fazer front brake calipers the same please. Want to refurb a spare set of calipers so when it comes to replacing the original worn pads I can do a refurbed caliper swap.
Thanks if you can help. Guy

Do you mean Boxeye model compared to Foxeye model, if so they're all the same?

Err...I've just rebuilt my 600, with refurbed calipers. However, my replacement calipers are identical apart from the banjo bolt location. The new caliper has a 90 degree change in banjo bolt orientation + a balance pipe.

This is the old version from the Tundercat and Thunderace.
